…vaccinations still contain mercury (even though they tell us they don’t) because it is the number one preservative on the planet?
…that high fructose corn syrup now contains mercury, to better preserve your food?
…by the time a child receives all 92 vaccinations (when I was little it was only 20!) they have 300 x the legal amount of mercury in their body?

DO YOU EVER WONDER IF OUR “CURES” ARE ACTUALLY KILLING US? I DO!
I am not saying all medicine is bad. I do, howe
ver, believe that we have become a pill taking society, never once questioning or researching things for ourselves. Doctors do many wonderful things for people who are in crisis and emergency situations.
I just have to wonder sometimes if the “easy” way (popping a pill or running to the doctor for every ache and pain) is the WISE thing to do. Maybe we should start by investigating the ROOT causes for some of our ailments!
For example, instead of popping a pill for our daily headaches, we should look into gettin
g adjusted by a good chiropractor. Headaches aren’t caused by a bodily shortage of Tylenol. There could be many causes, but typically it is nervous system related,
which can be alleviated completely by removing the interference on the nervous system. Maybe instead of getting antacids for our stomach problems we should evaluate our diet and make the hard commitment to eat differently than the majority of Americans.
There is typically a root cause to our ailments—sometimes simple and sometimes not. Sometimes we need a doctor’s intervention and other times we do not. Those are decisions you must personally make in each situation. Prevention and maintaining good health instead of frequent doctor visits are a big focus in our family!
If you don’t know where to start, we can help you–whether it is with healthy eating, exercise, supplementation, detoxing, chiropractic care, or just plain old prevention advice. Our family is on a mission to help create healthier lives – we would love to help you today! If you have questions, email us at info@healthyoates.com.
